There is only one truth about prehistoric times

Chapter 25 Inquiry from a Saint

Kunlun Mountains.

After the three saints finished teasing, they immediately looked at Xuanchen together.

The first person to speak was Master Tongtian: "You have understood the way of the innate Bagua this time, which is helpful to the perfection of the way of heaven. That's why the way of heaven will send you such merits. Now if you absorb all the merits, you will be enough to step into the realm of quasi-sage." realm."

"Become one of the top practitioners under the saint."

"The road to practice is long, and the disciple wants to explore step by step, to see the scenery above the peak, and does not want to use the power of merit to improve his cultivation." Xuan Chen cupped his hands and bowed.

"The road is a long way to go, and I will go up and down to find out."

Although the road to Hunyuan is now cut off, Xuanchen still wants to try it himself. If he doesn't climb the cliff, how can he appreciate the stunning scenery of the mountains? If he doesn't climb up, how can he know that there is no way ahead.

Even if the road is far away, it will come; even if things are difficult, they will be accomplished.

Looking at Xuan Chen's resolute face, Tong Tian smiled and said: "As expected of my Tong Tian's disciple, this is the demeanor of my true teaching, but your uncle has given you two spirit treasures, I am a master You can't be stingy anymore, I will give you a spirit treasure today, you can pick whatever you like."

After all, Master Tongtian waved his hand, and more than a dozen spirit treasures appeared in front of Xuanchen, all of which were top-grade innate spirit treasures, which stunned everyone present.

There are Hunyuan Whisk, Shangqing Orb, Dinghai God Orb, Four Elephant Pagoda, Sun and Moon Bead, Yin-Yang Furnace, Golden Phoenix Hairpin, Dragon Chanting Xiao, Destiny Knife, Heavenly Flower Flag, Star Map, Purple Electric Hammer, Fishing Drum, Hidden Immortal Picture, Water and Fire Gourd, Heart-Piercing Lock, Ruyi Bag and so on.

Xuan Chen hurriedly thanked him, and looked at it among the many magic weapons.

As expected of the Lingbao Tianzun, there are probably more than a hundred pieces of the best innate Lingbao in the whole prehistoric world, but in the end you took out more than a dozen pieces, what do you make others think.

Among them, the Hunyuan Whisk, the Dinghai Divine Pearl, the Purple Electric Hammer, and the Heart-piercing Lock are all top-grade innate spiritual treasures with 48 innate restrictions. They can be said to be the top treasures among the innate treasures.

The Hunyuan whisk was originally a treasure held by Taoist Hongjun. After Hongjun became a saint, he distributed the treasures to the Six Saints of the Heavens at the Dividing Treasure Rock. As the favorite disciple of Hongjun, the Master of Tongtian taught Hunyuan the whisk. Yuan Fuchen gave it to the leader of Tongtian.

Needless to say, the Dinghai Shenzhu, the refining of the Lingbao Yuantai accompanied by the Master Tongtian, will shine brilliantly in the later generations of conferring gods.

The Purple Electric Hammer can release the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, which can be seen from the fact that the leader of the Tongtian Cult used it to beat me.

The Heart-piercing Lock was worn by Tongtian Cult Master, which shows how precious it is. In later generations, the Tongtian Cult Master gave it to his third-generation disciple Yu Yuan to capture the Immortal of Chan Cult because he was afraid of leaving his grandson. However, before he could take action, he was captured twice with a rope to tie the Immortal. Therefore, The record is not obvious, but it must not be underestimated.

As for the others, they were ignored by Xuan Chen. If you want to choose, just choose the best one.

"You ate a Fenglei Xianxing apricot before, and your physique transformed into the body of the innate thunder. The innate gossip you have realized also includes the way of thunder. It stands to reason that the purple electric hammer is the most suitable for you, but the heart-piercing lock can lock people. The soul, even under the quasi-sage, can't avoid it, that's not bad."

Seeing that Xuan Chen was a bit tangled, Master Tongtian said.

The shape of the heart-piercing lock is like a long-lived lock, the lock body is golden, and the mysterious inscriptions of heaven are engraved on both sides of the lock body.

It is said that once the heart-piercing lock is used, the victim will have three flowers on his head, all the five qi in the chest will dissipate, and the three souls, seven souls and internal organs will also be firmly locked, leaving the victim unable to survive or die. Not even Daluo Jinxian can escape.

The heart-piercing lock can be regarded as one of the few powerful magic weapons in the hands of the Tongtian leader.

Xuanchen looked at the heart lock, then at the Zidian Hammer, and finally at the Dinghai Shenzhu.

"I still feel that I have some fate with this Dinghaishenzhu, please give me the treasure, Master." Xuanchen bowed his hands and said.

Although the purple electric hammer is suitable for me, I may not necessarily follow the path of thunder in the future. As for the heart-piercing lock, it is mainly for control rather than killing. I have the prototype of the merit spiritual treasure Douting Net, which I can refine by myself in the future.

After much thought, he chose the Dinghai Divine Pearl, not only because of its power and the ability to open up 24 heavens, but also because he wanted to see if Junior Brother Gongming would be killed if the Dinghai Divine Pearl got into his hands.

"Never mind!"

Master Tongtian heard that with a wave of his hand, the Dinghai Shenzhu was in Xuanchen's hands.

Then they called Jin Ling, Wudang, Gui Ling, and Zhao Gongming, and said: "Duobao was the first to worship me as his teacher and had already given him innate spiritual treasures. Sister Sanxiao also had innate spiritual treasures when she worshiped me as her teacher." Congratulations, the four of you have worshiped under my sect for a long time, but you have only refined a few acquired spirit treasures, and today I will each give you a congenital spirit treasure."

"Jin Ling, if you teach me a lineage of senior sisters, I will give you a Four Elephant Tower."

"Wudang, if you don't like fighting, I'll give you a golden phoenix hairpin."

"Guiling, you are a turtle who has attained enlightenment. You are more than capable of defense, but not enough of an attacker. I will give you the Sun and Moon Pearl."

"Gongming, you are the shape of the wind, and the heavenly flowers and flags have a hazy universe, and the ability to control the wind is perfect for you."

After speaking, the four magic weapons fell into the hands of the four people respectively, and the four people quickly thanked them.

Then the Taiqing sage said: "Xuan Chen, you have deduced and perfected the way of innate gossip today, how about explaining the way of innate gossip to many disciples?"

Everyone in the audience looked at Xuanchen together, feeling the scorching gazes around him, Xuanchen said hastily: "The disciples are ignorant, dare to show off in front of the saints."

Although Xuanchen evolved the innate gossip with the help of what he learned in his previous life, he couldn't explain it clearly like a saint, and hurriedly said humbly.

"It doesn't matter! On the way of the Tao, those who have achieved it come first. Only those who can walk out of their own way in the prehistoric world can achieve the realm of quasi-sages. Although saints are all ants, in fact, saints can only walk a long way on the road of Tao. You can make the Heavenly Dao bestow meritorious deeds on it, that’s your skill.”

"That disciple made a fool of himself!"

After speaking, Xuanchen began to explain his understanding of the innate Bagua. Although most of it was from the Book of Changes, Xuanchen also added his own understanding.

Taiji is one, it is the Tao, it is the chaotic vitality of the material nature without dividing the time between heaven and earth, Taiji moves to generate yang, and tranquility generates yin, which is to generate two forms, one yin and one yang are two forms.

The two appearances, one yin and one yang, each produce the image of one yin and one yang, that is, one divides into two, giving birth to four images. The four images are shaoyang, taiyang, shaoyin, and taiyin. .

The innate Bagua: Qian, Kun, Kan, Li, Zhen, Gen, Xun, Dui.

Qian represents heaven, Kun represents earth, Kan represents water, Li represents fire, Zhen represents thunder, Gen represents mountains, Xun represents wind, and Dui represents Ze.

After the two phenomena give rise to the four images, the four images each generate yin and yang, giving birth to the Bagua, that is, the four images generate the Bagua. That is to say, on the four images of Shaoyang, Sun, Shaoyin, and Taiyin, a Yang Yao or a Yao is added to each of them. Yin Yao, "folded into three", produces eight new symbols.

For example, if you add a yang line to Shaoyin, the resulting form is called Li Gua; if you add a yin line to it, the resulting form is called Zhen Gua.

By analogy, the following are generated: Qian [-], Dui [-], Li [-], Zhen [-], Xun [-], Kan [-], Gen [-], and Kun [-]. This order of arrangement of the eight trigrams and their hexagram numbers are the numbers of the innate eight trigrams.

The innate number is produced by the chaos of Tai Chi, which has no shape, image or position, but one gas, and the yin and yang are added sequentially, and the numbers from one to eight are naturally created, so it is called "innate".

The sky is above, and the earth is below; above is the blue sky, below is the thick soil; the sky is the master of creation, and the earth is the house of nourishment; the sky governs all things, and the earth contains all things.

Because heaven and earth have established the position of up and down, the Bagua uses the two symbols of Qian and Kun to represent heaven and earth, high and low, far and near, up and down, noble and cheap.

Heaven is superior and earth is inferior, which does not mean that the earth is one level lower than the sky, but that the sky is high and the earth is low, and the sky is far and the earth is close.

The congenital gossip determines the upper and lower with the heaven and the earth, and distributes the six major phenomena of the sun, the moon, the mountains, and the thunder and wind between the heaven and the earth.

If we compare the "positioning of heaven and earth" with human nature, it is the positioning of couples, with Qian as male and Kun as female, which represent the sympathy between heaven, earth, universe, yin and yang.

From the perspective of hexagram images, the Qian hexagram corresponds to the Kun hexagram, the Dui hexagram corresponds to the Gen hexagram, the Li hexagram corresponds to the northern Kan hexagram, and the Zhen hexagram corresponds to the Xun hexagram.

From the perspective of hexagrams, each group of hexagrams has three yin and three yang.

Therefore, the enlightenment brought to us by the innate Bagua is the balance of yin and yang, which means that the way of heaven and earth is the way of balance.

Xuan Chen could not spread lotus flowers with his tongue like a sage preaching, arousing visions such as flowers falling from the sky and golden lotuses bursting from the ground, but he also imparted his insights on yin and yang and gossip without reservation, and spoke out without reservation.

After speaking, everyone seemed to have realized something, and even I nodded in approval.

"What do you think is a saint? Or how to become a saint?"

My sudden question made Xuanchen startled, I am sure I do not know what a sage is, this is to test myself.

The saint is the pinnacle of the prehistoric practice at present, the realm that countless practitioners hope to achieve, but it is not just the realm.

A saint has no name, a god has no merit, and a perfect man has no self.

"Disciples believe that a saint must achieve the Three Lis in order to be a saint."

"What is Sanli?" I asked.

“The three establishments should be establishing virtue, establishing merit, and establishing reputation.”

"To establish morality means morality, and to establish noble morality; to perform meritorious service means to make contributions to all beings in the world, such as establishing a great teaching like the three saints to obtain merit; to establish words means to put forward speeches with insight, such as the way of inaction, such as The way of interpretation is like the way of cutting off the sky." Xuan Chen replied.

"Then how do you think we can establish morality, meritorious service, and integrity?" Lao Tzu asked again.

"People should have three views: see the heaven and the earth, see all sentient beings, and see themselves. See the heaven and the earth, and know reverence, so they are humble; see all living beings, know mercy, so they are tolerant; see themselves, and know the way home, so they are open-minded."

"If you want to be virtuous, meritorious, and expressive, you must first see the world, all living beings, and yourself." Xuan Chen thought for a while and replied.

Everyone looked at the two people asking and answering questions, but they were all confused and could not understand the true meaning.

Only the three saints and Xuan Chen knew that this was a reminder to themselves, to cultivate the Tao first and cultivate the mind first.

Hearing Xuanchen's answer, Lao Tzu couldn't help laughing and said, "Shan, if you can figure this out, there is great hope."
